  Deep dark reddish-purple garnet in color. Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe fruits aromas of dark cherries, cassis & plums with floral & herbal overtones, dusty/earthy, tea, spices, pepper, anise, minerals & a touch of oak in the background. Medium bodied with a good concentration of balanced, smooth textured, plush, ripe fruit flavors of cherries, blueberries & plums with herbs, minerals, spices & oak. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with decanting & extended airing but should develop further with additional aging.

  Still to young. A bit of dark fruit and oak. Some earth but this needs more time to real show anything.

  Walkabout tasting, so only brief impressions. Dense and ripe, lots of blue fruit, unfortunately drying finish.

  89 vvPunkte Feine Nase, zeigt Tiefe und viel dunkle Frucht, etwas kühlen Rauch, Kirschen, reife Heidelbeeren. Im Gaumen ein Mix aus Opulenz und Finesse, das ist nicht so überladen und deutlich frischer als en Primeur, feine Gerbstoffe, reife Frucht, alles ist an seinem Platz, perfekt vinifiziert, etwas wenig Seele. 2024-2034+ (April 2021)
